Hi everybody!! My PC specs are as follows:
Having heard about the problem, I disabled it, but even when it disabled, ICCmax setting remains at 500A, which seems rather excessive to me. So I looked for the intel recommended value and changed it to 140A. I have run some OCCT stress tests and it seems pretty stable, regardless being less than 1/3 of the auto value.
I have to clarify than I HAVEN'T HAD any stability issues with my system so far, but I have been using my PC during more than 2 months with APE setting enabled without knowing it could be dangerous, and I prefer being cautious than being sorry later. My question is simple: should I be worried about harming my CPU in the long term or I can assume the steps just taken are enough?
I attach some BIOS screenshots below.
Thx in advance!
